An ultra greatsword is a type of sword that marks the end of time where weapons simply got larger as swordsmiths became better and a practical limit to what any one man could carry into the battlefield while became apparent. This sword, building on what was already a greatsword is anywhere from 7 to 10 ft. long, made from a thick metal that no normal man could be expected to carry and a handle with enough room for three normal hands. This solid piece of metal is known as an ultra greatsword, the brand of only the strongest of warriors. These include, but are not limited to the German Zweihander or Guts' Dragonslayer.
